:::Conference Overview:::
International Conference on Smart Computing and Artificial Intelligence 
(SCAI 2018) focuses on Smart Computing and Artificial Intelligence 
based applications, technologies and theory. AI and Smart Computing 
can play a key role in addressing environmental, economic, and social 
challenges in real life. Developments of Smart Computing and Artificial 
Intelligence fields are key aspects of solving the social problems. 
In order to provide solutions in such complex problems, research of 
AI and smart computing have focused on different AI and smart 
computing technologies including search, decision theory, Information 
retrieval, Agent technologies, optimization and predicting and learning 
methods. The applications of smart computing and AI could include 
e-commerce tools, decision-making support tools, collaboration tools, 
e-commerces as well as knowledge discovery and learning tools.

The 6th International Conference on Smart Computing and Artificial 
Intelligence (SCAI 2018) will create an international forum for 
researchers and participants to exchange new ideas and practical 
experience in the areas of smart computing and artificial intelligence. 
The conference provides an opportunity to present and observe the 
latest research, results, and ideas in these areas. 
The conference will cover a broad set of research topics including, 
but not limited to:

Applications of AI
Autonomous Systems
Agents
Bayesian networks
Big data
